Tottenham Hotspur v. Manchester United - F.A. Cup Semi-Final

[Totti]

Why the fuck are we starting our second choice keeper in such an important match? This aint no time for sentimental shit like this!

Because our first choice goalkeeper has cost us 3 of the last 6 goals we've conceded?

This is going to be very different to the league game.

They're crowding central midfield for a start. Their big mistake in the league fixture was going 2 vs 2 in central midfield. With Herrera and Matic sitting and Pogba allowed to roam in front, it's going to be very hard for us if he isn't picked up. We saw how much Dembele and Dier struggled against City's three in midfield (and they didn't even have a holding midfielder).

Early goal would be fucking delightful.

Dele will be digging deep today like a fucking soldier....Pogba’s had one good game in 1.75 seasons, now they think he’s world class again.

Lads its only Man U

Hope you're right Sammy boy... Wish I could share in your zen-like calmness.

I'm just glad Vorm isn't playing left back

 

[Alli-Luya]

Let's do this. COYS.

 

[Totti]

Pogba has the ability to BE the best central midfielder in world football. But he seems to lack the 100% desire and commitment to be so. If he shows up today then he will run the show when allowed to roam free. I'd personally put Dier close on him and chase him all game. Drop either Dele or Eriksen a little deeper.

 

[Samisspurs]

Really slow out of the blocks last few games - can't afford that today in my opinion. Early pressure please.

 

[sammyspurs]

Hope you're right Sammy boy... Wish I could share in your zen-like calmness.

Channeling it right now.....I’m excited more than nervous. This is the big time again, who said the FA Cup was dead!

Fucking love it, got butterflies like the 91 semi whenever I was a kid. We’re gonna turn up today and what’s better than watching Spurs at their best.

Fucking come on!!

 

[Donato]

I feel like our captain should be starting here.. going to be interesting

 

[Nabil Bentaleb]

I'm just glad Vorm isn't playing left back

I would still play vorm there instead of son

 

[John Thomas]

I'm scared

Fucking man up then ya coward

 

[Hazza]

Hopefully I'm wrong but I don't think Son would have much joy today against that defence, we are not gonna get behind them enough to really use his pace. He would have been more useful, if we had played the counter, against City; but today is more of a Lamela match.

 

[Totti]

I just hope the right choice was made regarding captaincy and it's gone to Vertonghen.

 

[Bazali]

I'm scared. Honestly don't know if I can watch this

I liken games like this to extended root canal treatment

Please just this once......

Smalling v Son has red card written all over it

Kane is Captain

Yeh, Vertonghen should be wearing the band today. Kane just needs to focus on putting the ball in De Gea's net.

 

[Totti]

Kane is Captain

Ah, that's a shame.

Or Jones. He can terrorise both.
